Is it selfish?

Question

We have one daughter and I’m expecting again...we don’t know the sex yet. My husband says if it’s a girl he wants to try again for a boy. Honestly, I don’t want three kids. I’ve told him that. I get hardly any help with the one we have now since my husband works all the time. I do all the housework, work 3x a week, take care of our child (feeding, changing, bathing, bedtime, doing her laundry, picking up after her, literally everything), take care of our dogs....I am nervous about adding one more kid, let alone possibly two. Is it selfish of me to want to be done after this baby?

Answer

No tell your husband to step up and start being an actual husband and partner and father smh he sounds like a lazy piece of work

Answer

It's not selfish at all. Having one child only is a lot of work, if he wants 3, he'll have to do some work

Answer

Oh my gosh this is me 100% and no you’re not selfish AT ALL!! I’m so grateful for my husband and how hard he works, but he has no idea how hard it is so care for the baby all day and then to add our second one coming in fifteen weeks to the mix, plus our two dogs, it’ll be crazy!! I can’t even imagine three! I’m totally done after this one haha 😆💜 my husband is getting a vasectomy.

Answer

You’re NOT selfish, childcare aside, you’re the one who has to carry it, get sick, get fat, deal with all the pregnancy aches and pains and then give birth. If you’re really feeling like you don’t want to do it again then don’t, I’m sure Hubby can understand that. I mean, come on haha. 😊 On another note, I was certain that I didn’t want a third child no matter what the sex of our second was, it ended up a second boy. I held onto my 2-and-done rule up until my second son was 2 years and then decided all on my own I was ready for a 3rd. So you never know. 😉
